Bluenecks - 21 Jan 2004
Blue Necks are Northerners -- the opposite of Rednecks. Because of Redneck jokes,
here are some takes on how Southern folks look at Northerners
(or how Northerners sometimes think of themselves ;)

  • ....Instead of referring to two or more people as "Y'all," you call them "you guys,"
        even if both of them are women.

  • ....You think barbecue is a verb meaning "to cook outside."

  • ....You think Heinz Ketchup is really SPICY.

  • ....You would never stop to buy something somebody was cooking on the side of the road.
        (e.g. boiled peanuts).

  • ....You don't have any problems pronouncing "Worcestershire sauce" correctly.

  • ....For breakfast, you would prefer potatoes-au-gratin to grits.

  • ....You don't know what a moon pie is...

  • ....You've never had an RC Cola.

  • ....You've never, ever eaten okra
          -- fried, boiled, or pickled.

  • ....You eat fried chicken with a knife and fork.

  • ....You've never seen a live chicken,
        and the only cows you've seen are on road trips.

  • ....You have no idea what a polecat is.

  • ....You don't see anything wrong with putting a sweater on your dog.

  • ....You don't have bangs.

  • ....You would rather have your son become a lawyer,
        than grow up to get his own TV fishing show.

  • ....You drink either "Pop" or "Soda"- instead of "Cokes."

  • ....You've never eaten, and don't know how to make a tomato sandwich.

  • ....You have never planned your summer vacation around a gun-'n-knife show.

  • ....You think more money should go to important scientific research at your university
        than to pay the salary of the head football coach.

  • ....You don't even have one can of WD-40 somewhere around the house.

  • ....The last time you smiled was when you blocked someone from getting on
        an on-ramp to the Freeway.

  • ....You don't have any hats in your closet that advertise feed stores.

  • ....You have more than one professional sports team in your home state.

  • ....You call binoculars opera glasses.

  • ....You can't spit out the car window without pulling over to the side of the road and
        stopping.

  • ....You don't know anyone with at least two first names
        (i.e. Joe Bob, Faye Ellen, Billy Ray, Mary Jo, Bubba Dean, Joe Dan, Mary Alice)

  • ....You don't know any women with male names
        (i.e. Tommie, Bobbie, Johnnie, Jimmie)

  • ....You don't have Mam-maw's & Pap-paw's.

  • ....You get freaked out when people on the subway talk to you.

  • ....None of your fur coats are homemade.
Survivor - Southern Style

Due to the popularity of the Survivor shows, several southern tv stations are joining together and are planning to do their own, entitled "Survivor: Southern Style."

The contestants will start in Alabama, travel over to Georgia and on to South Carolina. From there they will head up to North Carolina and over to Tennessee. They will then proceed down to Mississippi and Louisiana. Finally ending up back over in Alabama.

Each will be driving a pink Volvo with New Jersey license plates and large bumper stickers that read: I'm Gay, I'm a Vegetarian, NASCAR Sucks, Go Yankees! Smoking is for Idiots, Hillary in 2008, Deer Hunting is Murder, and I'm Here to Confiscate Your Guns!

The first one that makes it back to Montgomery alive, wins.
Sou'thun Folks, now these are s'posed to be "fun", so don't take any exceptions to them.
We Southerners can poke fun at ourselves,
but any Yankee who even attempts it best give his heart to God,
'cause guess what part of their anatomy is ours...
